VPS Game/Web server security

Post by sevensrequiem »

Is there any extra precautions I need to take to make sure the VPS is secure? Or should I even worry about it?

This is for windows. I forgot to mention that my VPS is running Ubuntu 18.04, my bad.

I use iptables along with iptables-persistent.
Here is a good tutorial on how to use it.
It really helped when I was starting out with linux vps.
